[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Match Game (off-topic)

[Michael Alexander]

Carl’s right.  Becquerel, Marie Curie, and Pierre Curie shared the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics, which, overall, was for the discovery of radioactivity (a term coined by the Curies).  The Curies’ citation includes:  “in recognition of the extraordinary services they have rendered by their joint researches on the radiation phenomena discovered by Professor Henri Becquerel”.

I thought Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity, and his name is not on the list.
